Reckless abandon...


You may have noticed in the fashion show pics from this weekend that sometime between the baby shower and dinner Alex got a pretty nice shiner on her left eye. She fell and hit a toy while playing... kids will be kids, no big deal.

Yesterday her black eye was just nicely fading by the time I picked her up from daycare. As soon as we were in the door and coats, etc were off she headed over to play with her toys. As she picked a heavy one up her little feet came right out from under her... no-grippy socks+hardwood=whoops! No big deal, except that she managed to whack her head on the corner of the leg of a nice hard table on the way down. Ouch.

Once the crying subsided we busted out the boo-boo bunny and iced it down, but it was ugly. It didn't slow her down for long, and she was back at it in about five minutes.

It looks much better today... but it's still early so I'm sure she'll find
something else to run into/jump on/roll off/fall on before the day is over!

Poor baby

Why does it seem like all of the big falls happen back to back!?! I hope Alex doesn't have to play with the boo-boo bunny for a long time (although she looks very sweet holding him)

She is so cut holding the baby bunny to her head. It looks like the latest wound was almost gone last night! The weekend is coming up... and probably the next fall. Maybe it is time for a baby gate at the stairs
